"Bah! Humbug" - no, that's too strong cos it's my favorite holiday
But all this year's been a busy blur don't think I have the energy
To add to my already mad rush just because it is the season
The perfect gift for me would be completions and connections left from
Last year, world tour aeroplanes and babies
Met some guys but never the time most of '98 passed along those lines
So deck the halls and trim those trees raise up the cups of Christmas cheer
I just need to catch my breath Christmas with my mates this year
Calendar picture, frozen landscape chilled this room for twenty-four days
Evergreens, sparkling snow get this winter over with
Flashback to springtime, saw him again would've been good to go for lunch
Couldn't agree we were both free we tried, we said we'd keep in touch
We didn't, of course, 'till the summertime out to the beach to his boat, could I join him?
No, this time it was me sunburn in the third degree
Now the calendar's just one page and, of course, I am excited
Tonight's the night, but I've set my mind not to do too much about it
Merry Christmas merry Christmas but I think I'll miss this one this year
Merry Christmas merry Christmas but I think I'll miss this one this year
Merry Christmas merry Christmas but I think I'll miss this one this year
Merry Christmas merry Christmas but I think I'll miss this one this year
Merry Christmas merry Christmas but I think I'll miss this one this year
Merry Christmas merry Christmas but I think I'll miss this one this year
Hardly dashing through the snow cos I bundled up too tight
Last minute have-to-do's a few cards, a few calls
Because it's R-S-V-P no thanks, no party lights
It's Christmas Eve, gonna relax turned down all of my invites
Last fall I had a night to myself same guy called, halloween party
Waited all night for him to show this time his car wouldn't go
Forget it, it's cold, it's getting late trudge on home to celebrate
In a quiet way, unwind doing Christmas right this time
Merry Christmas merry Christmas but I think I'll miss this one this year
Merry Christmas merry Christmas but I think I'll miss this one this year
Tesco has provided me with the world's smallest turkey
Already in the oven, nice and hot oh damn, guess what I forgot?
So it's on with the boots, back out in the snow to the only all-night garage
But when to my wondering eyes should appear in the line that guy I've been chasing all year
"Spending this one alone," he said "Need a break; this year's been crazy."
I said, "Me too, but why are you you mean you forgot the papers too?"
Then suddenly we laughed and laughed caught on to what was happening
Christmas magic's brought this tale to a very happy e-ending
Merry Christmas merry Christmas but I think I'll miss this one this year
Merry Christmas merry Christmas but I think I'll miss this one this year
Merry Christmas merry Christmas but I think I'll miss this one this year
Merry Christmas merry Christmas but I think I'll miss this one this year
Merry Christmas merry Christmas but I think I'll miss this one this year

Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere (oh-oh) overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere
Now I believe in lookin' like my time on earth is cookin'
Whether polka-dotted, striped or even checked
With some glamour guaranteein' every fiber of my bein'
Is displayed to quite remarkable effect
From your cradle via trousseau to your death bed you're on view so
Never compromise, accept no substitute
I would rather wear a barrel than conservative apparel
Because a dress has always been my strongest suit
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere (oh-oh) overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere
Stayin' in or hitting townwards from the top and working downwards
I ensure that every stitch is stitched in time
Whether wig or hat or turban whether clog, boudoir or urban
Not to strut your stuff outrageously's a crime
And the few who are invited to my wardrobe are delighted
As they wander through my things to find a route
That in negligee or formal I am anything but normal
Because a dress has always been my strongest suit
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere (oh-oh) overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere (oh-oh) overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere
Now you don't need a recital of the reasons why its vital
That tonight my drapings will not be subdued
That from coronet to sandal no one else is worth a candle
That I couldn't make more impact in the nude
So bring me all my finest most audacious, my divinest
Most revealing, most expensive and to boot
Most arresting, most heart-stopping most free-flowing, most eye-popping
Because a dress has always been my strongest suit
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere (oh-oh) overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere (oh-oh)
(My dress has always been, my dress has always been)
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere (My dress has always been my strongest suit)
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere (oh-oh) (My strongest suit)
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere (oh-oh) (Strongest suit, strongest suit)
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere (My Dress has always been my strongest suit)
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere (oh-oh)
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere (Dress has always been my strongest suit)
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere (oh-oh) overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere

Been around the world a time or two forgotten more than you ever knew, yay
We can taste all this make your hair turn white make no apologies for the good life, yay
Sticks and stones, they'll break our bones but baby the names don't hurt
We're pain-proof (pain-proof)
Nothing you do can touch us so take a shot baby, that's all right
We're pain-proof (pain-proof)
I guess we must be used to the worst you can do we're pain-proof
I was talking 'bout the way we look better face the facts cause you know you're hurt, yay
Sit in your car right outside my door why the sudden interest I've never seen you before, no
You can twist our words to suit your twisted views
It ain't our damn choice to always be in the news
We're pain-proof (pain-proof)
Nothing you do can touch us so take a shot baby, that's all right
We're pain-proof (pain-proof)
I guess we must be used to the worst you can do we're pain-proof (pain-proof)
It's like a hide and seek in every part of our life
But you'll never get inside
We're pain-proof (pain-proof)
Nothing you do can touch us so take a shot baby, that's all right
We're pain-proof (pain-proof)
I guess we must be used to the worst you can do
We're pain-proof (pain-proof)
Nothing you do can touch us
So take a shot baby, that's all right (no that's all right it's all right)
We're pain-proof (pain-proof)
I guess we must be used to the worst you can do (you can do yeah hahahaha)
We're pain-proof (pain-proof)
Nothing you do can touch us
So take a shot baby, that's all right (you can't touch us, no baby, that's all right)
We're pain-proof (we're pain-proof)
I guess we must be used to the worst you can do (we must be, oh)
We're pain-proof (pain-proof)
Nothing you do can touch us so take a shot baby, that's all right

Oh-oh remember oh-oh and treasure oh-oh
The world can be so cold and such a lonely place when you're out there on your own
In a crowd it seems you're just another face and you're feeling so alone
You've got to live for the moment yeah before the moment is gone
(You've gotta dance like there's nobody watching you
And you've gotta love like you've never been hurt
And every time someone tries to bring you down
Remember, it's a day in your life (yeah) so treasure every day in your life (Harmony))
You've gotta live beyond your limitations, yeah and keep your dreams alive
Even though you're feeling this frustration, yeah you've gotta push it all aside
You've got to look to the future yeah before the future is here
(You've gotta dance like there's nobody watching you
And you've gotta love like you've never been hurt
And every time someone tries to bring you down
Remember, it's a day in your life (oh yeah) so treasure every day in your life (Harmony))
Oh, when the odds are stacked against you hold on tight we'll weather the storm
Oh, when you're feeling under pressure we'll pull together like never before
(You've gotta dance like there's nobody watching you
And you've gotta love like you've never been hurt
And every time someone tries to bring you down
Remember, it's a day in your life (oh yeah) so treasure every day in your life (Harmony))
(You've gotta dance like there's nobody watching you
And you've gotta love like you've never been hurt
And every time someone tries to bring you down
Remember, it's a day in your life (oh yeah) so treasure every day in your life (Harmony))
You've gotta dance like there's nobody watching you
(you've gotta dance there's no one watching you)
And you've gotta love like you've never been hurt (i'll never hurt you, no no)
And every time someone tries to bring you down (you've gotta dance)
Remember, it's a day in your life so treasure every day in your life
